Gifts...

I keep telling "Jay" that I feel Christmas came very fast. I am usually finished shopping, baking, wrapping and delivering my gifts by now but last week when I looked at the calender I realized I had a lots left to do.


I have three secretaries, or assistants; they are called now... and they are very dear to me.. on my to-do list were quilting projects for them... I got right to business and managed to get these table runners done. You know how when you get a pattern that works well you just need to get more that one done? Well that is the case with this Braid Runner by GE Designs. Three of them all done!


This one in "Christmas Presence" by April Cornell and other fabric from my stash

This one in the "Birchwoodlane" by Holly Taylor

And the third is made in "Trick or treat Smell my Feet" by Sandy Jarvais and matched other fabrics with it.

Now I can't decide which one should go to whom..Kathy, Shauna, or Laurie?.. so I put them in similar gift bags with no tags and will let them do the picking...
